I like the idea of the award, I don't quite like the change of the potential.
I think ROY could "just" boost merchandise and maybe ticket selling (and add a trophy to your team) and that would be enough for me.

I agree. The boost in potential would be too overpowered, and will even further decrease the value of 18 yo draftees who don’t have the initial skills to compete against 19 yo rookies.

I don't mind the suggestion, as long as it is max +1 potential increase and the award would go to the ROTY only. So, no rewards for 2nd or 3rd place.

+1

I think the more challenging component would be deciding on the criteria to determine who wins the award...

I think that for the criteria we could just use the same system already in place for MVP, but restrict it only to 18-19yo rookies.
I don't really know how to MVP voting/choice works in detail, but I think it would be easy for the developers to just use that at the beginning.

I think a boost in skill % could work. Mvp should be given more experience . Nothing game breaking though.very lite touch.

I think it would be such a great idea to have this ROTS award!

I don't think that boosting a +1 in a potential value would be so OP, keep in mind that a lot of teams would "compete" for the ROTS award and only 1 rookie in each league would see this +1 pop.

It could also be something nice to fight for if you are a team that is going to miss the playoffs.

I think the 'Roy' award is a great idea

. The 'Potential' attribute change is tricky. Maybe increasing the skills of the player slightly or the experience slightly instead?

The current 'Potential' system could potentially damage the game if they do potentials. If a player develops into an all-time great, the market could get out of control. U18 and Nt as well
